A lot's been said about that amazing Brazilian back & sides - I agree with all of it! - but the medullary rays in the spruce are mindblowing... and set off just right by the rosette.

If you wouldn't mind keeping the pictures & soundclips coming for the next 2 years or so, it might make the wait for mine a little more bearable!!

Hi Jon,

Thanks so much for your feedback -- and congratulations on your upcoming build.

My Kraut OM gave me very satisfying tones right out of the box. I've been making short clips of my several guitars under very consistent conditions -- and none of them compares to this OM.

It is a very elegant and modern instrument -- but when I hold it and play it, I completely forget about the looks... ;

I'll be sure to post new soundclips from time to time, with a more "serious" effort coming up at some point as well.
